Recycling Commodity Valuation
Our customers know that they receive the best possibleprices for
their materials and can clearly calculate the costsavings.
Demand for commodities are tied to global economic
growth, specifically ChinaPrices have seen record highs and lows
in the past 3years
Greenstar view for 2012 is demand for fiber and
plastic will remain stable through the last quartersubject to
global economy continuing to grow
Fixed price contracts are emerging as a tool tomanage price
volatilityterms of 12 -24 months arecommon (for fiber only)
